The ET Street 17s are in the Summitt and Jegs's online catalogs now but Mickey won't be shippin until March based on the rumor mill.

You need practice and a better track. Make sure they're plenty hot and CLEAN. This may mean doing a short dryhop after the burnout when close to the line.

I pulled 1.61 on 315 nittos in my '02. This was with stock gearing, stock weight, and an internally stock engine.

The track needs a good Prep job ,do a 6-8 sec burn out an Quickly stage and Hope the car next to you does the same.My Best 1.58 with a 2000rpm leave on Nittos.The BFGs are better an I will try for a 23 to 2600 take off soon. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
